20 KITCHENWARE NEWS & HOUSEWARES REVIEW • MAY 2020 • www.kitchenwarenews.com PLANO by COSTA NOVA is a recycled collection of tableware made from ceramic material that comes from the factory's own surplus production. It's a reinvented clay that begins by collecting clay waste from the factory and combining it with glazes and other materials to stabilize the final composition, which is turned into food-safe ceramics that save natural resources and reduce the collection's ecological footprint as well as reducing waste that would otherwise have gone into a landfill. The PLANO tableware is a collection of high-quality pieces manufactured from the Eco-Gres ® , the recycled clay material, into distinctive organic shapes that are beautiful and functional.
